Cold Day!

The weather here is no fun. Snow, rain, sleet and COLD! I hate the winter so much. I hate bad weather! I had so many little errands to run today and that is NOT happening.
Jason has decided, once again, that he does not need to sleep in but will be up between 4 and 6am. No fun and we are not sure what his deal is. Here is a few of his 6 month shots. I really like how these pictures turned out. He is such a happy baby and they really show that.
Ryan has been doing well. He dances to every song possible and is repeating everything we have been saying. Some times it is so funny. Jason finds Ryan to be very funny. I am a little nervous that I have a class clown on my hands and my other one is giving him the bad ideas. Well, I will catch up again soon. Things here have been really hectic and the camera doesn't seem to be around when I reach for it. I will make sure plenty of pictures are taken in the next few weeks.

Quick update

Things here have been so busy and continue to be that way. I thought I would put a quick post out.
Jason had his 6 month appointment. He is 17.3 lbs, he is 27 inches long and his head is in the 90%ile. He is doing just fine but not enjoy all the shots. He gave the doctor and the nurse a hard time.
Ryan has been doing well. Talking a lot more and trying to sing along with certain songs. It is actually very funny.
This is Ryan's Christmas present from Andy and I. He loves it.


For those of you who have heard me talk about the Fickel family, Douglas is in the hospital after being diagnosed with cancer, leaukimia on Friday. The family could use as many prayers as possible at this point. I will keep you all updated. They are like family to us so we have been trying to spend time with them and get other things done for them also. They are the most wonderful people you will ever meet.

Thanksgiving

Our Thanksgiving was wonderful. Ryan really enjoyed himself and ate more than most adults would, lol. As we were getting ready to go to Andy's Parents Ryan took a tumble and ended up with a black and blue goose egg on his head. You will be able to tell in the pictures. Jason had his first helping of mashed potatoes. He seemed to enjoy them but still loved whatever it was we fed him out of the jar. He is also a big eater, just like Ryan.

Andy had fun playing with the boys also.

Ryan helped his cousin make a gingerbread house. He was really excited but only got to help a little since he likes eating the candy better than putting them on the house.




The next morning my mom and I got up at 4 and went shopping. I think I imagined it would be worse than it was. I got a lot of shopping done over the weekend. I shopped Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I have about 5 gifts left to buy and I am done. Wow, I have never been this far ahead. Don't ask about wrapping though.
On Saturday night Andy threw me a surprise birthday party. He pulled it off well. I was very surprised and did not have a clue about it.
Well, I guess that is it for now!
